Give us those puppy-dog eyes! And the cat’s whiskers, too! When you adopted your pet, you changed his world, and Apartments.com wants to celebrate both of you-you for rescuing a pet and your pet for just being adorable. Starting August 6 – August 26, snap a photo of your adopted pet in your apartment and tag it on Instagram for the chance to receive a gift card worth $100 USD and a Petco Foundation travel water bowl and laser toy.

We know your furry roommate(s) are all over your Instagram feed and we want to see them! You might win a prize too. It’s a win-win!

Step two: Upload a photo(s) of your adopted pet(s) in your apartment to Instagram and use the hashtag #ChangeAPetsWorld

Step three: Tag @ApartmentsCom in your photo entries, the handle of your apartment community, and the handle of the pet adoption agency from where you adopted your pet(s) (if available)

Unfortunately, we do not get notifications nor can we see any posts from private accounts. In order for us to obtain photo(s), Entrant’s Instagram account needs to be public for the entry to be received.

Feel great about what you are wearing while sending some good karma out into the world. My jewelry has a purpose beyond the creation of beautiful adornments. I believe in the power of gratitude and giving and I love creating for the benefit of animals. I am a volunteer rescue worker. I work with some very wonderful groups that drive rescue pets to their new homes. My jewelry sales improve the lives of homeless and abused animals through sheltering, adoption, education and advocacy, as well as the prevention of animal cruelty. Always remember when you are wearing my beautiful jewelry you are helping a beautiful creature. You can feel good knowing that someone besides you benefit from your purchase… Look great and make a difference.
